A Devil in Disguise
Deceptive Goodbyes: Unraveling a Toxic Bond
Lyrics
I guess I have to give you some kind of title
I am assigning some sort of label or role to you.
Looks like I'll just call you a friend
I will categorize you as a friend.
I guess I gotta call it quits with this weird situation
I need to end this strange situation or relationship.
I think it's time I say it's the end
It's time to declare that it's over.
You got those puppy dog eyes and I don't wanna hurt you
You have a pleading look, and I don't want to cause you pain.
My god you're making this really tough
You are making the situation very difficult.
But I thought we made it clear, like it's written in contract
We had an understanding, like a contractual agreement.
I've really just had enough
I've reached my limit; I can't continue.
It's time to give up, give it up
It's time to surrender, give up on this.
Don't wanna hear anymore
I don't want to listen to any more.
I'm starting to get the creeps
I'm starting to feel uneasy or anxious.
It's time to cash out, cash it out
Time to end this, settle it.
Don't wanna lose anymore
Don't want to experience any more losses.
Before this hole gets too deep
Before the situation becomes too problematic.
And she said, ok screw you
The other person expresses frustration or rejection.
And she said, ok I really didn't need you
The person insists they didn't need the speaker.
I'm thinking, yes it's over, I'm really in the clear
Thinking that the situation is resolved, feeling relieved.
But such a fool I've become
Realizing a foolish mistake or oversight.
I never took back the keys to my apartment
Failing to retrieve keys, and someone was at the apartment.
Guess who was there when I got home
Discovering someone's presence upon returning home.
She said you're mine forever, don't forget that
The person claims ownership and a lasting connection.
I think it's time that I do
The speaker acknowledges the need to let go.
Cause it's those puppy dog eyes, really flame red in disguise
The intense, deceptive look in their eyes is a reason to leave.
I really have to leave you
Deciding it's necessary to part ways.
It's time to give up, give it up
Reiterating the need to give up and end the situation.
Don't wanna hear anymore
Refusing to hear any more about it.
I'm starting to get the creeps
Experiencing discomfort or fear.
It's time to cash out, cash it out
Time to settle, conclude, or finish it off.
Don't wanna lose anymore
Not wanting to suffer any more losses.
Before this hole gets too deep
Before the situation becomes too problematic.
And she said, ok screw you
The other person expresses frustration or rejection again.
And she said, ok I really didn't need you
The person insists they didn't need the speaker again.
I said
The speaker responds to the repeated rejection.
Get out, get out, you're out of time
Telling the person to leave because time has run out.
Stay back, stay back, you're losing your mind
Advising the person to step back as they are losing control.
Let's hit restart so we can just go unwind
Suggesting a fresh start to relax and unwind.
And she said ok, screw you
The person acknowledges the rejection with frustration.
And she said ok, I really didn't need you
Reiterating that they didn't need the speaker.
Get out, get out, you're out of time
Telling the person they are out of time, leave.
Stay back, stay back, you're losing your mind
Advising the person to stay back as they are losing their mind.
And she said ok, I really didn't need you
Reiterating that they didn't need the speaker.
